Marketing and the Bio-Burner Demo – April 12

HVGE has ramped up our efforts in marketing grass pellets. We are finding a great willingness for collaboration from stove dealers and consumers, especially as oil prices rise. Recently two local stove dealers have been testing our pellets in their Cumberland, Bixby, St. Croix and Fahrenheit stoves with promising results.

I would like to use this post to invite the grass energy community to a special demo from 11 am to 4 pm on Tuesday, April 12th at Tantillo’s Farm, 730 Route 208, Gardiner, NY. LEI Products will be running their Bio-Burner furnace while attendees can also see HVGE’s mobile mill on display and talk with loval stove dealers. The Bio-Burner is a multi-fuel, multi-day, high-efficiency burner/boiler that supports wood chips, saw dust, corn, pellets and other biomass up to 40% moisture content. The company is keen to support grass pellets and tested 1,000 lbs of our pellets in their KY warehouse. Both HVGE and Bio-Burner will be present at the HeatNE conference in Manchester, NH April 14-15 where we will be part of a special discussion on grass pellets.

Looking forward to seeing both HVGE and LEI at HeatNE. Has LEI tested grass briquettes yet? I have 500+ lbs of Tom Lee’s 1.5″ BHS Slugger briquettes that I’d be happy to donate. I’ll even briing them along to Manchester to run during the show!
